1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo describe the protocol used for translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the questionnaires developed by the Rome Foundation for the diagnosis of disorders of gut-brain interaction in the pediatric population.

methodsThe protocol was proposed based on a narrative review of the literature on the cultural adaptation process of measurement instruments in epidemiology, analyzing its stages, and verifying its use and feasibility. The guidelines for the cross-cultural adaptation of diagnostic instruments developed by the Rome Foundation, which defines and periodically reviews diagnostic criteria, were incorporated into the protocol.

resultsThe proposed protocol includes: (i) preparation; (ii) forward translation; (iii) reconciliation; (iv) backward translation; (v) review of the backward translation; (vi) cognitive debriefing; (vii) final review; (viii) calculation of the item content validity index; and (ix) approval by the Rome Foundation.

conclusionsThe methodological steps described in this protocol may contribute to future translations and cross-cultural adaptations of diagnostic questionnaires of disorders of gut-brain interaction and other materials from the Rome Foundation, enabling their use in epidemiological studies.
